The general plan of redevelopment of Samara is ready. For the first time in the country the development of such a document was begun with compilation of a digital surface contour map of the city.

In Samara construction of 15 road interchanges is supposed. Design works on moving engineering communications in Novo-Sadovaya str. and Sokolova str. have already begun. If all will go under the plan, the problem of traffic jams in streets will be solved at last. Besides the construction of a highway «Central» is planned. It will go along Karl Marks and connect city centre with Rakitovskoe highway. Some recreation areas are planned to build as well: 5th stage of Volga river quay and Samara river quay, the network of parkways in the central part of city, a park in «Dubki», 6 new athletic fields equipped by pools, skating rinks and fields for mini football, the main stadium for 30-40 thousand people in Alma-Atinskaya str. and Rakitovskoe highway.

However there is a problem of redevelopment of the historical part of the city. The authors of the plan mentioned for several times, that the wooden houses recognized as historical monuments are planned to place on Korovy Island.
